they could be doing something as crazy as putting the key in the "share this" URL. If they put it after the fragment then it doesn't get sent to the server and they can continue to deny having the ability to read file contents. Someone did a "Show HN" with a site that did something similar a month or two back.
Presumably mega then don't offer a site search but instead rely on google to index warez forums with links to the site that include the decryption key. I don't know.
Edit: found the site that did this: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3852649 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3852649
- samwillis 14y agoYep, that was me. I strongly suspect that this may be what he is up to. It occurred to me at the time that there may be a way of doing it with files. Ultimately I shut down the site as it got very little traction.
